Portree
Charming harbor town known for its colorful waterfront houses, a gateway to the Isle of Skye's rugged landscapes and Scottish Highland adventures.
Tips from the community
Hugging the shores of a secluded bay is a charming seaside town, and the capital of the Isle of Skye, Portree. Surrounded by the craggy hills of Ben Tianavaig, Fingal’s Seat and Ben Chrachaig, this quiet post is the largest town of the Inner Hebridean isle. Home to the majority of the island’s restaurants and cafes, as well as the only secondary school in Skye, Portree’s roots are firmly seeded in its fishing town origins. On a still day, when the water in the bay is smooth as glass, capture the reflections of the brightly-colored cottages that line the water’s edge for the most iconic photo location in this quaint pocket of Skye.
